Let's do a deep dive study tonight with Clay Jones--who taught Defense of the Resurrection for MA Apologetics Program at Talbot School of Theology. Can you give argument for Jesus' conquering death? What verifiable proof do you have? Riveting conversation, tonight. Let's rise above, "Well--that's what I've been told" as an argument........

Here we are--Mother's Day weekend AND the FIFTH Month of 2025 already! How's it going? The news, the headlines, social media posts and the general mood of almost everyone around us seems, in a word, depressing. No? The numbers don't lie: Nearly 4 in 10 adults (39.3%) say they have anxiety or depression. And a KFF/CNN Survey found that 90% of Americans believe there is a mental health crisis in the U.S. JOY! How do we find (and have), joy? There are keys to discovering joy. What is joy, anyway? Happiness? It is not. It's better! Tonight...................

Real Life SH 344R THE KEYS TO FINDING JOY 1

When tragedy hits (and make no mistake--it will) in our lives, what do we do with the epic loss and grief that envelopes us? Doesn't matter the loss: A loss of a mate, family member or a loved one. A loss of a job or the loss of a home. The loss of a limb or loss of a relationship. What do we do with the pain? Could it be in finding purpose for the pain that we find new life? Snooky O'Leary joins us tonight. Seven years ago, Snooky's husband, Patrick died out of the clear blue after receiving a clean bill of health from his doctor 2 days earlier. What sense does that make? Hear her story tonight and be encouraged..............

Her loss was deep and no one could blame her if she just gave up. She had a choice. If you live with incredible pain from loss. If you think all hope is lost. If you think that there will never be healing. Would you take 25 minutes and take a listen to the powerful testimony of Phyllis Vance? Tonight, on Real Life.

Steven Wright joins us for a second week and this time: Q&A.
If you were sitting across from a former major league baseball player, what would you ask him?
Well, Steven doesn't know the questions we're going to ask so buckle up. In fact, Dave asks one, hoping he doesn't get slugged. It's one I think, majority of us have often wondered about and not just when it comes to ball players either. Even Gina gets very quiet. Tonight........

Real Life SH 357R Q&A for STEVEN WRIGHT Former Boston Red Sox Knuckleballer

Your story matters! How you grew up, how you faced adversity, overcame obstacles, got set back by circumstances and how you didn't let it beat you. Your Church story matters! Your business story matters! There is power in story. When you share life experiences, people say, "I didn't know that about you!" It connects us. Ever thought of writing your story to pass down to children, grandchildren or clients? Join us tonight.

Happy Summer!
Tonight--"The Perspective of Life from a 14-Year-Old"
Madden is 14 years young-Right in the middle of being a part of, "Gen Alpha". Madden loves baseball and even wears #35 in honor of Gina's late husband, Frank Pastore who wore #35 with the Cincinnati Reds. Gina was so impressed with one of her, "Besties" Grandson, that she invited Madden in to talk life from the perspective of a 14-year old: What does Madden think of the political climate in our country? What does he think about God, culture, the future and the role of a man in the family?  Get into the mind of, "Generation Alpha" tonight. HINT: Pretty amazing conversation.
